Photography is a way of putting distance between myself and the work which sometimes helps me to see more clearly what it is that I have made.

The stones tear like flesh, rather than breaking. Although what happens is violent, it is a violence that is in stone. A tear is more unnerving than a break.

You must have something new in a landscape as well as something old, something that's dying and something that's being born.

I enjoy working in a quiet and subversive way.

Ephemeral work made outside, for and about a day, lies at the core of my art and its making must be kept private.

I've laid down in dried up streambeds, leaving a shadow. And then, five minutes later, it's flash flooded, and where I once laid is now running water, which would've washed me away, you know? There's that power and danger often in places that look so calm and pastoral to begin with.

I'm not a performer, in that I don't like the public, but I work in that respect.
